GENERAL LoGAN's SECOND BOOK

General Logan at the time of his death
had completed his second book, ''rhe
Volunteer Solder of America and it
was ready for the printer SO soon as it
was generally known that it was in exist
ence, publishers from all parts of the
country wrote TO Mrs Logan making of
fers for its publication Not few called
in person and used their best influence to
get the work into which it was understood
that the dead hero had put so much
thought and strength and affection. 1t
WAS his last and best tribute to the one
interest be loved mast-the volunteer
soldier. From Philadelphia, New York
and Chicago came publishers urging their
special advantages, and pleading for the
opportunity to sell the book of the hour.
Mrs. Logan, eager and anxious to do the
best thing for the books future, talked
with her friends and compared the offers
OF the various publishers. It transpires
that an enter lprising Chicago publisher,
Mr. r. S. Peale, has secured the prize.
and has given to Mrs, Logan the same
terms Gen. Grant received tor his
Memoirs. Mr. Peale Is of the firm of r.
S. Peale & Co, Of Wabash avenue: be is
Young man of push and sagacity, and
his triumph oyer the best known pub
fishers in the United States is a matter of
congratulation to the Chicago public.
Mrs. Logan favored his offer because she
preferred the book should be Published
in Chicago, and also from the fact that
Mr.. Peale controls tie largest subscrip-
ton organization in the country. The
work Is destined to have a notable fame
1t is history of military education in
this country, exhaustive and remarkable.
General Logan has reared bis lasting
monument in this effort for the beloved
volunteer soldier. 1t will raise the pres
tige Of the citizen soldier to the higher
plane where General Logan always in
sisted his pedestal should be illustrated
in the full sense Of that term, and will
contain many pictorial "reminiscences of
historic battle fields. Mrs. Logans in
terests are we'll cared for in The contract
She receives two-thirds Of the profits Of
the book, and will be fully protected in
every respect. The manuscript gives
every evidence of the most careful pre-
paration, and it would seem that General
Logan must have had some knowledge OF
the fact that he was doing his last service
for the soldiers when be wrote this won
derful story OF valor and fortitude AMI
heroism.

Mr.. BEECHER'S LIFE IN A NUT
SHE'LL.

The following private letter, written to
E. j. Box, contains Mr. Beechers own
account OF. his lite in condensed form:
PEEKsKILL, N Y, Aug. 1S, 1885.
My Dear Mr.. Box. or Boo. or Book, or
Amytding but Book Beer:-The account
you have kindly sent ME of my "frst
sermon is more nearly true than most
stories that are circulated of me. My
brother George wished to be awaya Sur
day, and | was requested by him to sup
ply his pulpit. Text, sermon and all
attendant circumstances are gone from
my memory, except the greenness--no
doubt about that. =
My earliest remembered address was
given at Brattleboro, VT, on temperance,
when | wasin ny junior yeara at Amherst
college. But my earliest remembered
sermons were delivered at NorthbrIdge,
Mass, where / taught school for three
months in 1881 | conducted confer
ence meeting almost every night, and q
temperance address at Upton, Mass where
"Oid Father Wood" was pastor, and in
his church. In the winter of 1888 /
taught school in Hopkin,on, Mass, and
carried on revival meetings every night
and preached on Sundays. The people
were plain and simple, and liked the
effusions. During the winter of 1888
again taught school at Northbridge aGd
made formal sermon in chapel over
the new store built bv the Messrs. Whitins.
Thence | went to Lane seminary, near
Cincinnati, and preached in small places.
When, in 1887, [ was ready to leave the
seminary, | went over to Covington, KY,
and preached in the Presbyterian church
for several Sundays, and expected to form
church there and remain, but a call
from La wrenceburg, Ind, was made and
was soon settled there for two years and
over; thence to Indianapolis for eight
years, and in October, 1847, | came to
Brooklyn. | have been preaching over
fifty years. My next and last call and
settlement will probably be in Green
wood. Cordially yours,
HENRY WARD BEECHER.
To EDWARD w. Box, Brooklyn.

JEFFERSON.

In reporting the circuit court proceed
ings last week we neglected to mention
that S. N. D. Smith, of Harvey, was
granted an alb olute divorce from his wife.
without any alimony, on the grounds of
desertion. 1t was shown that something
over year ago Mrs Smith went to her
people in the northern part of the state,
absolutely refusing to live with him any
longer on the farm.
Probably as strange thing as we
ever heard of, happened at the farm of
John Weber, of Pennington. The hogs
had dug into the base of straw stack
and about Jan. it tipped over, burying
some OF the hogs. This Mr.. Weber did
not know at the time, though he missed
two hogs and could not account for their
disappearance. Last week, in moving
some OF the straw, the two hogs were dis
covered, and the strange part of it is that
after being buried under the straw for
two months they were both still alive. are
now living, and will make good pork for
some one.

HAIR-RESTORERS,
The Injurious and Even Fatal Effects of
Dyes and Other Compounds.

The Injurious and Even Fatal Effects of
Dyes and Other Compounds.
For the hair no dressing has been
found to cause the desired gradual
dar1ening without the aid of lead.
Either it is mixed with sulphur in the
bottle or trusted to find enough in the
hair to form there deposit of the
black sulphide of lead. The change of
gray hair to something nearer the color
of youth takes place so slowly that the
user is easily duped by the assurance
on the label on the bottle that the fluid
is not a dye, but q tonic and restora-
tive of hair vigor Ii this were merely
p case of deception it would scarcely
merit the attention we have given it.
But the deceiver is also a thief and a
poisoner, stealing away the health that
is the basis of natural beauty and daily
increasing the need for artifce to make
up an appearance for the thing stolen.
From recent periodicals and works
on toxicology a list of some length
could be made of cases of all degrees of
slow poisoning from lead hair-dyes.
1u6 l0du lGSe1 HTS even Dcon recovered
from the body after death in two cases
of which we know. Doubtless if all
the persons who have experienced harm
from lead hair-dyes could be counted,
the number would be sensational enough
to meet the wants of the most Jealous
sanitarian. The effects are often so
vague that the cause is not suspected.
Most physicians would not assign to
cosmetic, OF the use of which they are
presumably ignorant, the causation of
such vague symptoms as dry and SAL
low skin. falling hair, dyspepsia, debil-
ity, low spirits, neuralgias and other
usual phenomena of confirmed i'll
health. Yet these accompany and may
exist apart from the sharp attack of
collie or wrist-drop, or joint pains, or
brain trouble that would first direct
the physician suspicion to lead poison
ing.
In this connection two important
facts are now well established: First,
that serious disease may be induced by
the long continued use of lead chair
restorers." Second, that the most pop
ular, if not all the chair restorers, -
vegetable and other, contain Lead
Medical Ne1Cs.

In recent number of the Russian
Historical Messenger (Lstoricheski Vest
Mix is related the discovery of Greek
city on the banks of the Dneiper. About
five versts below the village of Bielo-
zersk are the ruins of a city which have
just been explored. Traces have been
found of streets regularly laid out, the
foundations of houses, stoves filled with
cinders, pots, and the remains of bones,
pits to hold grain, drainage pipes,
many domestic articles, fragments of
statues, and handsome cornices, pieces
of lead and soine Greek money with
the Inscription. "Olbia." TO all ap-
pearance this IS the site of the Greek
city of that name. AS yet not a tenth
part of the ruins have been explored.
Next spring the excavations will be-
continued, and the kurgans close by
will be examined.
